It was never abrogated.

It formerly would have been juridically correct to state that it was abrogated.

It is no longer juridically correct to say that it was abrogated.

doubtful. many poor parishes don't even buy new missals every year, which is what you seem to be assuming. they get 'hand-me-downs' from wealthier parishes (which is what my parish does with old missals).
